Honestly… you get what you should expect from here, A Newfie in Mexico. Clueless owner leads to clueless staff. Don’t waste your time here.

Honestly, I first glance we had a great experience here. Our first time we were waited on by Mimi and she seemed great at the end of the night. We paid our bill on card and we selected the tip option but long behold when we got home the next morning, and we checked our statement. It was only processed for the amount of the bill, we felt so guilty that we walked back and handed her a 20% tip in cash and apologized. Well, let me tell you we were met with pure attitude an eye roll and not even an acknowledgment after our apology. We had planned to stay and eat dinner. We ordered two drinks and let’s just say Mimi‘s attitude was so off putting. We decided not to stay for dinner and to be quite honest, we will never come back. The fact we came back less than two days later with apologies and a very good cash tip we feel as though we didn’t deserve this attitude and trust me when we say the service she provided the first time was so bubbly and so bright the difference was astronomical. Mimi you need to check yourself and realize things happen.Edited… here yourself!? Funny I didn’t see Peter there at all! lol you’re right we came back and Eduardo served us because Mimi didn’t even bother with any words afterwards not even a thank you. Eduardo was amazing but we still chose not to stay because of her lack of customer service after the fact so please don’t even try to dismiss this clear of customer relations after the fact: You’re proving my point! Mimi who was all about I and our kid stayed away she hid inside. This isn’t with the experiences we’ve had at the old location and this new one prior. Make whatever excuse you want you are unbelievable and beyond out of touch.

Had a wonderful meal this evening. Had the fish and chips and it was done Newfoundland style. It was fresh and tasted awesome.We also had an appetizer, which were the cheese sticks. Made from fresh cheese and the rolled in a crust and deep fried. So tender and light, but the portions were so big we could only eat two out of the 4 in the basket. It was served with Mariana sauce. It was delightful!!Highly recommend this place. The food is all organic and fresh and the prices are very reasonable.Thanks to the owner whom we met and he is such a nice guy. Everyone who was there came and hugged him good night; how sweet is that!!!!

I went and ordered a vegetarian burrito. The description mentioned all burritos would include rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, peppers and lettuce. My first burrito showed up with mushrooms in it - I'm allergic to mushrooms and no where on the menu did it say there were mushrooms. The waitress argued that it did say it on the menu but I checked again (photo attached) and it does not say mushrooms. She very nicely did ask the kitchen to remake my burrito however when it came out a 2nd time, it was only the tortilla and a mix of random vegetables! No beans, no rice, no cheese, no sour cream. Just carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and peppers (photo attached). I am not vegan and the burrito did not say vegan. It said vegetarian which just means no meat. I was insanely disgusted with my food and barely ate. I do not recommend at all.

The best damn place in Playa for a few drinks, great food and amazing atmosphere. The owner is a Newf from Eastport and X military and had the chance to escape to a little piece of paradise.

First and last time :-(We noticed an error on our bill and politely inquired with the waitress if the price was correct. She responded rudely, insisting there was no mistake. However, when my friend retrieved the menu and showed her that the Burrito should have been priced at 165 pesos, not 215, she became even more hostile.When I attempted to capture a photo of the bill alongside the menu, the waitress became visibly upset and forcefully took the bill from my hand.Later, a guy came back with the corrected bill, the waitress was standing a little bit behind with her arm cross and clearly very angry and he was really aggressive... This unsettling encounter left us feeling unsafe, despite our 25-year history of visiting Playa del Carmen every year.This happen on March 1, 2024.I regret to say that I cannot recommend this restaurant.
